The Assessment of 1887.
TAYInR Inly % ISS-

TAYLOR, July 22, 1887.
 EDIroE HERALD-During and after the late session of the Board of Equaliza- tioD, had an opportunity of carefully examining the assessment rolls of 1886 and 1887. I may state, with safety, that three-fouIths of the names are assessed for less value in 1887 than in 1886. Take the owners of cattle, eliminating those who increased their herds by pur- chasing cattle from Texas or Mexico last year, with the exception of Smith. Carson $ O., Tuning X Coo ey, and St. George Creaghe, all the prominent cat tie men affirm or swear they have no more animals than in lSSG, and in most instances fewer. How can this be pos sible? The loss last winter was nomi- nal, and the calf crop satisfactorily large Tile writer has made several in- quiries, in order to ascertain how the herds have become numerically smaller, and all that can be elicited is, that it is consequent upon the pl:ce of cattle b.
The St. Johns herald., 1887-07-28

The Congregational Sunday School and Publishing Society began with this year the publication of a four-page weekly for youngest readers in the pri- mary department of chr Sunday schools, the name of "The Maytlower" being given it as appropriate to the "Pilgrim" Series of publication for Sunday schools, of which it was to forma part. The So- ciety has recently learned that news paper bearing the same name had for some years been published at Yarmouth port, Mass, by NIT. Geo. ge Otis. This has led to friendly correspondence, and MT. Otis, with evident sympathy in the work of the Society, cordially ac- quiesces in the use which is made of the title "The Mayflower," in connection with the juvenile publication above re- ferred to. Acknowledgements are due 10 NIT. Otis for his great courtesy in the matter, and it should be clearly under stood that his right to the title, "The AldA HOhci, dS dIPiiCt4 IO iIcNoI'dtcI' is in no way affected by this use which is made of it, with his knowledge and consent, by the Congregational S. s. and Pub Society. Mir. Otis' "Mayflower is an attractive weekly paper (secularl of eight pages, and IS intended for the family. It has a large variety of read ing matter adapted to old and young, is carefully edited, and its price, sl per year, places it within the reach of many readers who cannot afford the higher priced papers.-Congrega
 We understand correspondence is be. ing had with Oliver Optic, James Otis, Ho'atio Alger, IT,, and other eminent writers for the young, in order to secure their interesting contributions for the Mayfiower. The 'Mayfower will be sent on trial for two months for onIy ten cents. Try it.

ing ruinously low. Now, il this IS the sole reason for the osteEs:ble shrinkage, i the county income is likely to become a myth, or at any rate infinitessimally small II the price of beef in Chicago and Kansas City is gong to regulate the affirmation or oath of the noble cattle man, regarding inc number Of stock he has assessablc, he is not composed of the sterling, honest qualities that we have credited him with. Tie large sheep owners also are assessed for far less than last year, the reason for this decrease has been given, that they have taken their cue from the cattle men. The farmers are suffering deplorable di- intuition Of worldly goods comparing their present assessment with that of 1886. I also glean from my investiga- tion that merchants seem to be drifting hopelessly into bankruptcy-the cause of this alarming state of affairs, is sim ply the force of evil example. When large cattle owners give i'll notoriously small assessments, those who represent other industries very probably follow suit, by pursuing the same course. These offenders year after year, finding no punishment attached to this offence, grow bolder in their false estimates of their property, thus the assessment roll increases in inverse ratio to the actual increase of property.
 1 The penalty for this williul misrepre- sentation is wholly inadequate to meet the seriousness of the offence, or rather the means of arriving at the proof of the perpetration of these fragrant cases of perjury, is so tortuous and impracticable that the law has no terrors. The Board of Equalization, upon complaint, raises their assessment to what they deem just, and notifies them of the time set for them to show why the raise should not be made permanent. then the fol- lowing farce ensues: The persons whose assessments have been raised, appear
 
 and generally make wild statements re- garding tieir losses. The Board is sub- jected to all kinds of annoyanccs in the form of intimidation, threats, warnings, etc., finally those accused of giving in less than they own, probably make afIi- davits that they have no more property than they originally gave to the assessor, they then retire, congratulating them selves upon their escape from a just and fair taxation. Unless the grand jury can make all example, by indicting a few of these reckless perverters of the law, the only remedy for Apache county will be to have more penetrating law passed by the next Legislature.
 FAIR PLAY.
